For sale or trade Hoback Stoneaged A15
Awesome knife that you won't be afraid to scratch up. The finish lends itself well and is intended to be used. I got this a month ago and it's just to big for me. I dont know the exact date it was made but i think it is less than a year old because it comes in the leather case and uses the lockbar insert you see on Jakes IG.
Here's an action video. It's hard to beat the sound of big knife firing haaard.

When I got this knife it was dull so I mounted it in my Wiched Edge to asses the blade. The blade was stting at 20 degrees on the show side and roughly 23 on the other. I've sharpened a half dozen other Hoback knives and they were 20 and 20 so I fixed it up then put a toothy microbevel on at 25 degrees. In doing so I've created a nice utility edge but also touched the sharpening choil with my stones. Here are some close ups.
Here's the blade zoomed way in.
Heres a tip test.
I am asking $1395 USD($1715 CAD) or best offer shipped and insured in North America via CP Xpress Post.
I paid $105 more a month ago. I will consider trades. I'm looking fo an A8 or another A10 but will consider other custom folders of similar value or partial trades (knife + cash). I'll take EMT or Paypal if you pay the fees.
This knife is located in Canada and will be on this thread for a couple days before I advertise it on the US thread.
